The fruits of 100 years’ experience – DCC’s People Mover Systems are based on cable propulsion technology and hold several key advantages. DCC's individualized system concept means developing the most efficient solution possible for optimum simplicity and functionality. Utilizing cable technology significantly simplifies maintenance, reduces O&M costs and improves reliability.
Simplicity
- intelligent system concepts, each individually tailored to the customer’s needs
- few moveable parts ensures fewer defects
- the train affords the use of a simplified control system because a grip attaches it to the haul rope at an assigned point
- a standardized, modular system allows for rapid installation and testing schedules
- stationary drives and an emergency drive backup ensure stalled trains can easily be returned to the station for simple and save evacuation
- cable technology's highly efficient propulsion solution affords simple power distribution without high power rates along the guideway
Functionality
- low initial system investment costs
- environmentally friendly
- custom tailored system designed for its unique environment
- simple, proven base technology
- system safety and design according to International APM codes and standards
